IRRIGATION.

The frequent references to irriga-
ton in the press, especially of the
Pacific Coast, indicate that it has
become one of the enterprises of the
country, on which large prepor-
ton of its prosperity depends. The
value of irrigation needs no demon
stration in these Islands, as every
cultivated field in the kingdom
proves its indispensability. Private
enterprise, so far, has accomplished
about all that has been effected in
this direction, and, under ordinary
circumstances, the irrigation of
lands might be left there. But
there are conditions existing in this
kingdom which are somewhat pecu-
liar. That irrigation is necessary
in every part of the islands to make
lands worth anything for agricultu-
raj pursuits, is an accepted fact.
This suggests the question whether
irrigation should not become ma
tional enterprise and be classed with
the building Of roads, wharves and
landings, under the head of public
improvements. Other countries
subsidize railways, ferries and
coaches for the promotion of inter-
communication and trade between
the people. Manufactures are aided
by bonuses. Fishermen are helped to
good prices by bounties. OF course,
no little discrimination is required
in dispensing favors Of this kind.
Following out the same principle in
Hawaii might result in converting
some of the wilderness land of the
country into irrigated and fruitful
fields. A well organized national
scheme Of irrigation, by which the
country may be fitted for small farm
holdings, would be of more perma.
nent benefit than the immigration
business which has already been Q
heavy item in the public expendi'
lures, and has besides introduced
problems into our social and politi.
cal system that will not be readily
solved.

THE TEMPERANCE CAMPAIGN. /,
LAST EVENINGS MEETING.

The meeting at the Y. NJ. c. "A.
hall last evening was we'll attended.
1t is strong, though silent tribute
to Mr.. Booths wonderful influence
upon the popular mind. that the
audiences have re-assembled from
evening to evening in force. 1t has
been frequently remarked by theatre
people that this is a "one-night"
town, but that estimate does not
seem to be correct, as applied to
Mr.. Booths mission. The choir
performed its part, fully sustaining
the reputation the ladies and gentle
men composing it have deservedly
gained for themselves. The Rev.
G. M. Hyde, d. d., efficiently per-
formed the duties of chairman,
and made the Introductory speech.
Mr.. Booth dealt with the subject,
"The Great Temptation" in an in
tensely earnest and impressive
style. The usual quota of funny
sallies were reserved for the "Comic
Crowd" lecture, and the speaker
expatiated OH the serious phases
Of the question. Facts and statis-
tics were adduced to prove that
the Europeans are not as ispopular-
ly supposed, an abstinent people
and that drunkenness, instead Of
being less prevalent in wine growing
countries, is exactly the reverse.
A number of signers was obtained
to the pledge, the enrolment now
being about 240. This evening, the
"Comic Crowd" will doubtless
bring bumper house, the fifty
cents admission fee to the contrary

by the condition Of his liver. 1t is
very much the same with the indi-
vidual citizen, American, Hawaiian,
or Englishman. His own institu-
tions are the best or the worst
known. The government Of the
country, provided the members are
selected from the opposite party, is
invariably the most corrupt on tho
earth. The members are without
exception, stepped to the lips in
villainy. To the Californian, the
senators alleged to be usurpers, are
fit only 10 make laws for the waste
basket, and in Hawaii, large and
respectable portion Of the commune
ity would be decidedly thankful If
the legislature would take some
leaves out of the Californian's book.
The amount of the calculation,
doubtless is, that politicians pretty
fairly represent their constituents.
As water cannot rise above its own
level, the public man can hardly be

less, in the same qualities.

Mr.. DAYS DEBUT IN HONOLULU.

Last evening o number Of
persons met by invitation at the
Club House Dining Rooms, for the
purpose Of making arrangements for
series of lectures to be delivered
in this city by Mr.. Day. Mr.. Van
Doom was called to the chair, and in
few appropriate. remarks, intro
duced the speaker OF the evening to
his audience, Mr.. Geo. Cayanagh
acting as Secretary. Mr.. Day rose
to the occasion and soon made an
impression on his hearers as a ready
speaker, possessed of no mean
oratorical powers, which developed
as he proceeded with his address.
Being freethinker, he briefly ex-
planned to the audience the principles
Of his belief, but at the same time
he stated that as full exposition Of
his ideas on the subject of Free
thought might not meet with public
favor in this city, he ROnld, provided
he met with reasonable support, dis
course upon the "French Reyolu-
ton, from the taking of the Bastile
to the Rise of Napoleon" "Napo-
leon, from the battle Of Marengo to
his death on st. Helena" in which
the lecturer will compare tho life Of
Washington to tliat of the slittIe
Corporal" the "Life Of the Duke of
Wellington" and George Wash-
iDgton." The speakers remarks
met with the appreciation of his
entire audience which was shown by
frequent applause.
At the close of his remarkS, Mr..
Day presented the following reso.
luton :-."That this body of Work.
ingmen do express their heartfelt
coincidence with His Majesty, Mem
bers OF the Royal Family, and the
Hon. A. s. Ueghorn in the death of
II. II. II. Princess Likelike," Oar
ried unanimously.
A vote Of thanks to the Chairman
and Secretary pro. tenn was accorded
and the meeting adjourned, after
having agreed upon the Club House
Rooms as the Place IN which Mr..
Day will deliver his first lecture, on
Monday evening next, at 1880 i, ".
